Unable to use tools with graphics tablet and pen - Ma95sc - 08-17-2024
Hi there,
I've recently installed GIMP 2.10 onto a new laptop, as well as the device driver for my Wacom graphics tablet.
By default, GIMP treated input from my mouse and my tablet separately. After changing the settings as per some instructions online, it was working... well, not perfectly, but well enough for my purposes. Transitioning between tablet and mouse isn't seamless like it was on my old laptop.
I've launched GIMP today and while I can select tools using my tablet, I can't actually do anything with those tool unless I switch to my mouse. I need to be able to draw freely, so this isn't ideal.
I hadn't changed my input settings, so I'm not sure what the problem is. In Preferences > Input Devices, I'm set to share tool and tool options between input devices; then, all of my input devices in Configure Input Devices is set to Screen mode.
Any help would be appreciated!

How many devices are listed in the "Devices" dialog? Only one (Core pointer) or are there separate Core & Stylus devices?
